Rate of reaction between marble chips and acid. Introduction In this experiment I will be testing the rate of reaction of marble chips and acid. The by-product is CO2 and we will be testing how much CO2 is given off. The marble chips are made out of limestone (CaCO3) with one of the two acids available: Hydrochloric (HCL) and Sulphuric (H2SO4) Factors The factors that could affect the rate of reaction of my experiment are as follows: · Concentration of acid This could affect the rate of reaction because the higher the concentration of the acid then the more acid particles per 40cm3 so more collisions per second and then there will be more successful collisions per second. · Temperature of the acid If the starting temperature of the acid is different each time the speed at which the acid particles collide with the marble chips will increase more the higher the temperature goes. This means the acid particles...
